Meet Astra & Laura,

A Dainty Pair of 18k White Gold Australian Crystal Opal Stud Earrings with Soft Blue & Green Color Play

Soft, delicate, and bezel-set in solid 18k white gold mountings that feel nothing short of quality, this pair of Australian crystal opal stud earrings gently play quiet colors of blue and green when viewed in the light; when viewed in lower-light environments, the opals appear almost transparent.  One opal has an eye-visible natural fissure inclusion, a trait common among many comercially-produced dainty studs.

Despite having a dainty profile, measuring approximately 8mm long by 6.25mm wide from the bezels, this pair of push-back earrings has a notable heft—weighing a combined total weight of 1.25 grams, including both 18k white gold butterfly backs.  Their inherent density is noticed when holding both earrings in hand, a quiet sign that their manufacturer spared no expense with thier production.

Though less-commonly an issue with higher-karat white gold purities like 18k, it is important to note that some wearers do have sensitivities to nickel alloys found in many white gold jewelry pieces.  At OpalPop, we suggest being sure that the intended recipient does not have a known nickel sensitivity before committing to the purchase of white gold jewelry.  If it is known that they already have and enjoy white gold pieces in their collection, they likely do not have this sensitivity.
